Universal fudge points

[jmattern]

I'm looking for a way to add fudge points for all students for a specific quiz that doesn't involve me individually adding fudge points to each student in speedgrader or creating a separate 0-point assignment and (again individually) add extra points to that separate space in the gradebook (I realize this is a relatively effective workaround, but it seems cumbersome both in the fact that I would still have to go through each student to add points and in that its an extra column in the gradebook).  I found a couple posts in the forums from a couple years back where it was mentioned that the ability to add points to all quizzes was a feature Canvas was planning on implementing in New Gradebook, but I haven't been able to find out if that came to fruition, and, if it did, how to use it.

Hi  @jmattern ,

Related to this work around...

creating a separate 0-point assignment and (again individually) add extra points to that separate space in the gradebook (I realize this is a relatively effective workaround, but it seems cumbersome both in the fact that I would still have to go through each student to add points and in that its an extra column in the gradebook).

I can't help with the additional column problem, but for that work around you should be able to use the Set Default Grade feature from the assignment column header menu in the gradebook to assign the points to all students at once, rather than having to do it individually. Here's a guide that describes it... How do I set a default grade for an assignment in the New Gradebook?
